A finely drawn serif with bracketed, tapered serifs and a clean, high-precision outline. Capitals are tall and relatively slim, with crisp triangular joining and controlled curvature in bowls and diagonals. Stroke modulation is evident but restrained, giving a steady page color while preserving sharp terminals on letters like T, V, W, and Y. Lowercase forms are compact and traditional, with a two-storey a and g, a narrow, straight-shouldered n/m rhythm, and punctuation and figures that match the same crisp, slightly calligraphic finish.
Well suited to long-form reading in books, essays, and editorial layouts where a traditional serif voice is desired. It can also support headings and pull quotes that benefit from a tall, refined look without becoming overly ornate.
The overall tone is classic and bookish, with a quiet formality that reads as editorial and traditional rather than decorative. Its slender silhouettes and sharp finishing details add a refined, slightly authoritative voice suitable for serious text settings.
The font appears intended as a conventional, readable serif for continuous text, balancing classical proportions with crisp, modernized finishing for clear editorial typography.
The design keeps counters relatively tight and verticals prominent, which enhances a clean, disciplined texture in running text. Numerals appear straightforward and text-oriented, with consistent serif treatment and clear differentiation between similar shapes.
